Chapter 55: My Lord, the steps are too big, will I get to that point?

After a moment of silence, Lu Fan got up and looked at the generals under his command.

"You have been following me for a long time, but this official is already a third-grade general in the official army, and the person with the highest position is only a thousand households, this level is too low!"

Hearing the commander say this, Shen Lian and the others suddenly felt refreshed.

My lord, are you going to mention their level?

"On my East Road, in addition to the general of this official, there are three garrisons and six guards, and it is impossible for this official to let go of these positions and let those moths occupy a high position and plunder the people's fat and ointment!"

Shen Lian and the others suddenly became short of breath when they heard this, guarding and being disciplined, it was already a military attache position above the fourth grade, and it was also a military attache with real power and could sit in a city, with great power.

Although Jinyiwei also has a lot of power, it is a secret service agency after all, not the right way for military attache to be promoted.

"Shen Lian, from today onwards, the Jinyi Guards who participated in the reclamation of the wasteland have gradually withdrawn from the fields and started a half-month actual combat training!"

Shen Lian got up to receive the order, he knew that his lord's butcher's knife was finally going to be raised like Li An's pickled people.

"My lord, in what name shall we do it?"

For Shen Lian's question, Lu Fan smiled.

"There is no other way to give those people a chance to resist than to participate in the army mutiny in the name of making trouble. Moreover, this time to suppress the bandits, their control over the army under their command has been greatly weakened, and if they do not guide the army to mutiny after returning, they will have no chance in the future!"

"So, clearing out the rebels and quelling the rebellion, isn't this my Jinyiwei's job?

As soon as Lu Fan said this, everyone in the hall immediately laughed.

In fact, when everyone first came to the East Road, they discussed what means the local military attaché would use to deal with them.

For example, buying grain at a low price and selling it at a high price has messed up the prices of the East Road and caused public resentment to boil.

Or businessmen went on strike, students went on strike, and protested against various orders of the General's Office, which attracted the attention of the General Military Office and even the Central Imperial Court.

And the most ruthless means is to lead the army to mutiny, storm the towns, and even storm the government in the name of making trouble, forcing the officials to bow their heads.

In Datong Town, there will be a wage incident in a certain area almost every year, which is almost an extremely common thing.

Not only Datong Town, but also an important town on the nine sides, there are endless incidents of wages every year, and the court is accustomed to it.

And every time this kind of incident occurs, the central court will issue an order to condemn a landlord who is unable to deal with the incident, and then order the general military palace to pacify the rebellious army.

For the imperial court, as long as the matter does not make a big fuss, it can be calmed down locally, but it is just a matter of dealing with a certain chief official, which is not a big deal.

It is precisely for this reason that guiding officers and men to make money has become the most advantageous weapon in the hands of local military attachés, and it is also the most practical method.

In particular, since Lu Fan took office, he has eaten away at the foundation of the local military attaché step by step, and the prestige of the General's Mansion has become stronger and stronger on the East Road, and it is still rich and rich.

Therefore, in the eyes of Lu Fan and others, as long as the local military attaché still wants to fight hard, he will inevitably use the killer weapon of making trouble.

And this is also the result of Lu Fan's intentional guidance.

He doesn't have time to accompany those military attaches to play one by one, and now that the troubled times are coming, only by cutting through the chaos with a quick knife and sweeping away the local military attachés and other tumors in one fell swoop, can he safely develop the East Road into his base camp!

They don't make trouble, they don't make trouble, Lu Fan really can't find an opportunity to kill them all!

The spring ploughing was coming to an end, and the plan to exterminate the local military attaché forces had been deployed, and then, Lu Fan focused his attention on army building.

"Yang Wanli, from today onwards, will begin to recruit new troops among the homeless and local tenants!"

"Young and middle-aged men over the age of 16 can sign up, and once selected, they can get five acres of fertile land, tax exemption for three years, and free admission for children in the family. ”

"If they are sacrificed in wartime, in addition to the pension of silver taels, the old people's wives and children in the family will be supported by the General's Mansion for life, so as to ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Ding'an, who was quickly recording the content of the meeting on the side, suddenly collapsed.

Since entering the General Office, Lu Fan has set up a separate financial department, with Wang Dingan as the first financial secretary, mainly responsible for various revenues and expenditures of the General Office.

As soon as he heard that he was going to spend a lot of money again, his heart couldn't stop dripping blood!

"My lord, your policy is good, as soon as this order comes out, in the future, I will continue to give birth to a strong army, and there is no doubt about loyalty!"

"But my lord, these are all money, just to accept the displaced people and encourage the East Road to open up wasteland, our General's Mansion is already financially tight, even if there is the financial income of the Suning Chamber of Commerce, but it can't withstand such repeated financial expenditures!"

Military attachés in other places, eating empty salaries and annexing fields, are trying their best to make money, and then try to support their families and expand their private armies.

It's good for the adults to be in their own family, they don't support their families, they don't eat empty salaries, but they have to keep throwing money out, but the money that is scattered out will not be able to see the benefits at all for a while.

If it goes on like this, it will really be empty, and I am afraid that if we can't wait for this year's autumn harvest, the entire General General's Mansion will have to go bankrupt!

With the power of one government, he raised the entire East Road Nine Cities, and the adults did not raise a private army, but his approach was to hold the entire East Road in his hands and become a private territory completely under his control!

The intentions of the adults, these cronies of them all understand, but is this progress a little too fast?

What should have been completed in three years, if it is done in one year, the steps are too big, will it be related to that?

In case of an accident and the game collapses, the entire East Road situation will be extremely erosive in an instant!

"You don't need to worry about money!"

As he spoke, Lu Fan groped for a moment in his sleeve robe, and then took out a piece of silk with a map on it.

"Do you still remember the powerful 9,000-year-old back then? At the beginning, the official finally gave him a ride, and in return, he left the official a fortune of three million taels of silver!"

"The reason why this official founded the Suning Chamber of Commerce in Suning County at the beginning, and even set up a thousand households there, is that it is Wei Zhongxian's hometown, and this money is also hidden by him in an old house in Suning County!"
